F1 2013 – Critical time for Massa

Felipe Massa is under pressure after suffering an incident in each grand prix since the 2013 F1 Monaco Grand Prix. Team principal Stefano Domenicali says these are “critical moments” for Massa, with Luca Di Montezemolo saying there’s no rush to decide Massa’s future.

Stefano Domenicali said “Yes, these are critical moments, and of course we are not happy with the results.

“But we have to support Felipe, because the team is fighting for the constructors’ championship.”

Montezemolo said “(Massa’s) Future? We will talk about that further down the line as there’s no hurry.”

“Felipe is fully aware he can count on our total confidence in him.

“I hope he will soon secure the results that will show his talent to the full, such as the great starts he pulled off at the last two grands prix.”
